it is not a great design currently, after a couple of failed phoning home attempts it just de-lists the server, with ED's master server being so flakey over last year or so a more robust system should be tried (maybe attempt to connect if fail wait 30 seconds then try maybe 3 or 4 more times)

Install modules using DOS prompt (handy if in game mod manager is having issues)

install this https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3322208/ drag and drop miz file into the window and you are good to go ( it strips out required mod lines)

I would say it is far far too risky to buy the F-15E right now ... for "reasons" that we cannot really freely talk about on this forum regarding scuds you would need each unit to be in a group by itself to fire on different targets

is this still in development ?

did you right click and install as administrator ?

are you running the latest DCS build ? run updater

I can use a phone hotspot for authorisation..... ^ this will work (for auth) , I assume you have 4 different DCS accounts one for each PC ?

DCS_updater.exe uninstall KOLA_terrain DCS_updater.exe install AFGHANISTAN_terrain No idea why you dont have one server to rule them all

i was flying with a box attached to my hind last night and it was spinning at super high RPM , was loling

@BIGNEWY really sorry to bother you, any movement on this , it would be great to get a full manual for this module

oh thanks, I thought it was just me I am also getting this when flying the hind and CH-47F , it is terrible hissing sound

You should only have one DCS server installation folder and use different folders in saved games for each instance you want to run otherwise you will duplicate a lot of data unnecessarily if you run the dedicated server installer at that point you select which terrains to install (apart from afghanistan as ED have not updated the installer for it - you can do it manually with DCS_updater.exe install AFGHANISTAN_terrain ) there was defo something messed up with todays patch for dedi server eg

@BIGNEWY can you give the dev lads a shout please, the dedicated server installer does NOT have the option to install Afghanistan terrain My server got F'ed by todays update and I had to do a complete re-install, then had to manually install Afghanistan https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/server/

sadly no

I gotta say Its kinda weird for a publisher to NOT know what he is going to publish Very saddened by this absolutely terrible PR blunder of removing what we have already paid for

Thanks for confirming it is not just me Snoopy , do you have any snippits of dcs.log log from your server you would be willing to post here please ? what we are seeing looks similar to this post

my own dcs.log file is littered with lots errors as well, but it runs and does not crash when it crashes do you get an crash report being generated ?

his installation is either corrupted OR the mods he left when he copied over his saved games folder (open knee board) is causing it to crash 2024-08-07 20:45:17.951 INFO OpenKneeboard (Main): Init 2024-08-07 20:45:17.951 INFO OpenKneeboard (Main): Loading DLL - search path: C:\Users\andys\Saved Games\DCS\\Scripts\Hooks\?.dll;.\lua-?.dll;.\?.dll;D:\My Programs\DCS World\bin-mt\lua-?.dll;D:\My Programs\DCS World\bin-mt\?.dll; 2024-08-07 20:45:17.958 INFO OpenKneeboard (Main): DLL Loaded 2024-08-07 20:45:17.958 INFO OpenKneeboard (Main): Callbacks installed 2024-08-07 20:45:17.958 INFO APP (Main): Loaded C:\Users\andys\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\Hooks\OpenKneeboardDCSExt.lua 2024-08-07 20:45:18.073 INFO Dispatcher (Main): //=== END OF INIT ======================================//

Hi, We run 3 instances of DCS servers and they get restarted everyday at 5am, for some weird reason only 1 is currently showing up (public one) Now normally when this happens and we check the dcs.log file we get error messages about not being able to report to master server, then things go back to normal when it phones in, check the log file and noticed this on our main server 2024-08-07 12:51:05.987 ERROR ASYNCNET (6317776): HTTP request dcs:server:update failed with error 7: Couldn't connect to server 2024-08-07 12:51:06.002 ERROR ASYNCNET (Main): Server update failed with code -7. The server will be unlisted. on our training one we got 2024-08-07 12:50:48.159 ERROR ASYNCNET (6318200): HTTP request dcs:checksession failed with error 7: Couldn't connect to server 2024-08-07 12:50:48.159 WARNING ASYNCNET (6318200): Session check failed: -7 2024-08-07 12:52:10.159 ERROR ASYNCNET (6318200): HTTP request dcs:checksession failed with error 7: Couldn't connect to server 2024-08-07 12:52:10.159 WARNING ASYNCNET (6318200): Session check failed: -7 2024-08-07 12:52:31.685 ERROR ASYNCNET (6318200): HTTP request dcs:server:update failed with error 7: Couldn't connect to server 2024-08-07 12:52:31.700 ERROR ASYNCNET (Main): Server update failed with code -7. The server will be unlisted. and on the public server (the one that is still showing up on the master list, we got this) 2024-08-07 12:52:11.032 ERROR ASYNCNET (6318720): HTTP request dcs:checksession failed with error 7: Couldn't connect to server 2024-08-07 12:52:11.033 WARNING ASYNCNET (6318720): Session check failed: -7 @BIGNEWY is this anything we can effect? or is it on ED's side on the master server ? EDIT: Using direct IP and port connection we can connect to these "offline servers", so dcs server == working ok, the reporting to master looks to be a bit dodgy ?

you will have to script it for sure, thats how I managed to get a crap load of troops onto various positions on oil rigs

^ that is pretty much what I have in my config files Is it the same server instance having this issue? And to be clear all servers are restarted and all show up fine after starting up , then later on time passes and one "drops off" ? One thing I have noticed over last few months is that ED master server has hick-ups a LOT more often than it used to eg sometimes I see several log file messages saying that it cannot report to master server and then after it bit it goes back to "normal"

they all got different connection and webrtc ports ? for each instance

we removed LotATC from our server a while ago as it was causing freezing/crashes

thanks for reporting flappie
